The College of Law TIk: past year has seen an astonishing acceleration in the advancement of the College of I .aw, along its path of higher, cation. Installation of the sccoM nationaMti fraternity took place at lready the college has gai the American Association? is working for recognition from Th. Alien can Mar Association, 'fo facilitate the wirtdjng of Lhg, latter recognition, the College of I .aw ii'jS Building lias lieen completely remodeled at a cost of $10,000. It is now one of the hesi fur nishtSl buildings on the campus, and its cla s K. -’Ctonis, which henceforth, are to be used only for law classes, are fiervajled with a distinct legal at nio jihere-tlirouKljoiit. Additional volumes are continually being added to the Law ; Library. Although The College of Law maintains its own self-government entity, it maintains an ever present interest in the welfare of the gen eral student Ixxly. This interest, it is rumored, may hear fruition next year in the event of a DEAN FEOTI.Y constitutional assembly. ccorriing to the backers of this plan the campus would furnish the necessary legal foundation. Dean Samuel Marks Fegtly is l eing held as a material and foremost promoter of the plan to place Arizona's College of Law among the highest. His efforts in this direction have been unceasing since he was made Dean in 1915. His success can largely lie accounted for by his ability to gain the confidence and friendship of In's students. Each member of the faculu working under the dean is well known for his legal ability. With such a combination, that ol an able staff under the dean and an augmented plant, it is inevitable that the College of Law will grow much faster than it has in the past when its conditions were not nearly so favorable.
